Terre Haute (Ind.) South quarterback Danny Etling was ready to make his college decision on Tuesday, but first the 6-foot-3, 200-pound passer needed to take a walk.

So Etling grabbed his cell phone and headed out the door. As he walked he also dialed up anyone he could think of whose counsel he had previously sought. He called his high school coaches. He called one of his former coaches who now lives in Florida. He called former college and NFL head coach Cam Cameron, whom Etling has worked with in the past.
